it's UNREAL
LORE:
The Institute is known for their discretion, to subtlety, never quite in the forefront but almost always omnipresent, from behind pulling the strings. But rarely, if ever, that at times they have a need to escalate and provide a measured response.
Officially the "Eightball" Rocket Launcher, it is built atop the prototypes procured from the Hopeville Missile Base. Firing the smaller Rocket in a salvo, with each crank loading a single munition to a maximum of six, providing the user an option for a tactful strike, an overwhelming flurry, or somewhere in between.
Colloquially turned into the "Trident" Missile Launcher, as the complexity and rarity of the smaller Rocket deterred it's use, leading them to turn to the more-common but larger Missile, able to raise hell and more each turn, to a maximum of three. A useful alternative when subtlety is no longer an option.
Finally built into the "Redeemer" Nuclear Launcher, whose only prototype lost within the Glowing Sea. It uses a modified Fatman-Shell, using a portion of it's nuclear charge to send the shell at greater speed and distances.

Permissions
> Give Credits: Not all of these stuffs are mine alone, OpheliaNeoma's explosion recolors for one. Though it is something I asked of her, I do believe that proper credits are in order. Same applies to all authors that helped me.
> For Repackers: Yes, you can translate it, make a compressed-texture version, and/or upload it on another site. Note that I do update a lot, for fixes. I do not decry people for wanting an AIO package, but I would prefer that my mod be treated with respect and dignity, not just for me but for the sake of the Giants I stood over. There's a reason Dak USED to have open-perms with his mods -- do not take advantage of the community's good-will.
> For Borrowers: As in those who wants to bring the gun outside of Boston, if-you-know-what-i-mean. Don't asset flip.
I understand that this might be presumptuous of me, because I'm sure the quality of my weapon isn't up to par.
I don't judge you for borrowing mod guns, they are after all awesome, and I'm sure the monumental effort you have crafting a new land is something to aspire to -- lazily slapping mod weapons together however, isn't. I would prefer if the weapon is instead integrated with more thought and effort, than just a straight-up port and some tweaks that it looks more like an asset-flip than anything. I am well aware of the weakness of my mod, and as such I would prefer if some more polishing is applied for it to be put into your project, such as perhaps take out the ammo-switching system if the rest of the guns you're employing doesn't use that. Maybe give it better texture, or take out the unnecessary ones. But whatever you do, it shouldn't look lazy -- put more effort into it.

Compatibility:
> Munitions Patch available - Allows the use of Munitions Ammo, disabling built-in ammo
> Near-Instant Burst - Turns burst-fire near-instantaneous, as fast as the system can.
Known Issues:
> The system uses the Burst-Fire Framework, and thus has the similar issues, such as the burst being liable to being interrupted and cancelled, while consuming the ammo.
> Burst-Fire does not work on VATs, and is thus simply prevented when you have 2 and above ammo loaded.
> Burst-System can be faster or slower by your frame-rate, and thus the burst can slow as your FPS flicker.
> Burst-System is limited to a maximum of 20, and thus Never-Ending legendary will be disabled.
> There is Damage-Bloat with regards to explosive damage. While the Damage-Card is correctly reflecting the damage, the damage done outside, when there's multiple sources of damage-bonus, deals more than what is indicated.
> Too much explosions CAN CTD. Custom explosive effect does mitigate it, but does not remove it.
